Call for Entries: 6X6 Media Arts Events

SHARE YOUR WORK, GET EXPOSURE, GET FEEDBACK, SEE WHAT OTHERS ARE DOING

Athens artists working in experimental, digital media, film, performance, sound, or combination arts: 6X6 wants your work

The 6X6 Media Arts Events II will be held monthly from October 2010 to December 2010 and February 2011 to April 2011 in order to provide a forum for submission and curation of media artworks and build a community of participation, review, and response for both audience and practitioner.

The program title “6X6” refers to the structure of the program:
  • Six events
  • Sixty minutes long each
  • Six pieces per event
  • Six minutes or less per piece
  • Six curators
  • Six themes
Pieces are limited in length to six minutes, and no more than six will be selected for any one event. No limitations are placed on what type of work can be submitted except: it must be able to be projected digitally, performed, played via sound system, or some combination. Electronic files and support materials can be submitted via email (up to 5 MB's), CD, DVD, or internet download. Entries with technical problems need to be resolved by the artist or will be withdrawn or rejected. Terms of submission include permission to exhibit both live and online (whether or not selected for a particular event), permission to video tape performances, and permission to include selected work in a compilation DVD. No materials will be returned. Other than these uses, the artists will retain all rights.

Submit your work by the deadline for the month of the theme you wish to enter -- see the submission form for complete details.
